About this listen

The transition to a net zero economy will bring with it a vast array of impacts and opportunities that will reach across society.

But how do we ensure that negative impacts are minimised and opportunities are capitalised upon?

In this episode we find out:

  • The ways in which a shift to a low carbon society could boost the UK economy
  • What co-benefits mean and what implementing them could bring
  • If co-benefits could speed up change in combatting the climate crisis

Professor John Barrett speaks to Climate Evidence Unit expert Alice Garvey, and Head of Climate Services at the Met Office Professor Jason Lowe about turning climate action into an opportunity to build a more equal and prosperous nation.
